DSI PGA Sutures, are meticulously engineered for superior performance in dental procedures. Crafted from Polyglycolic Acid (PGA) coated with polycaprolactone and calcium stearate, these sutures offer unparalleled tensile strength and knot security.
DSI PGA Sutures are a synthetic, absorbable, braided multifilament that is absorbed completely by hydrolysis in the body. This unique feature ensures a predictable absorption timeline and minimizes antigenic reactions, making them ideal for dental implantology procedures.
With 75% of their initial strength retained after two weeks and gradual degradation to 50% at three weeks and 25% at four weeks, DSI PGA Sutures provide consistent support throughout the critical phases of healing. They are fully absorbed within 60-90 days, promoting successful outcomes.
Indications:
Close extraction sites
Gingival surgery
Closure of incisions
General surgery
Plastic surgery
Ophthalmology
Dermatology
Features & Benefits:
Biodegradable material - Made from polyglycolic acid (PGA), a synthetic biodegradable polymer
Simplified post-operative care - A predictable absorption profile simplifies post-operative care planning and reduces the need for frequent follow-up visits
High tensile strength - Offer high tensile strength, ensuring durability and integrity in wound closure
Minimal tissue reaction - Biocompatible synthetic material minimizes tissue reaction, reducing inflammation and promoting optimal wound healing
Smooth surface - reduces tissue trauma during suturing and minimizes the risk of tissue irritation
Versatility - PGA sutures can be used in a wide range of surgical procedures across different specialties due to their versatility and compatibility with various tissue types
